Mmm...

After school we two engaged in pre-pubescent play
At your house afternoons were spent cruising your black driveway
In your junior Thunderbird electric kiddie car
I chauffeured you and you lounged in back
Back then you were a star

Well, your mother, she was famous
And so you were famous too
Call me groupie, call me gigolo
Oh I had fell in love with you

I asked you once, "What will you be?"
But you quickly said, "A nurse"
But the way you sparkle way back then
I knew you'd caught the curse

Everybody has got a block
Off which they are a chip
Oh but some chips grow to be great blocks
So Liza let it R.I.P.

This is your ex-chauffeur who speaks
Indeed you caught the curse
Now you've got that Oscar
I don't think you'll be a nurse

    Lots of corrections, but THIS one is actually right:

    After school we two engaged in pre-pubescent play At your house afternoons were spent cruising your black driveway In your junior Thunderbird electric kiddie car I chauffeured you and you lounged in back Back then you were a star

    Well, your mother she was famous and so you were famous too Call me groupie, call me gigolo, oh I fell in love with you I asked you once what will you be but you quickly said "A nurse"
